My all-time favorite unit of speed, the FF! For reference, a snail typically travels at about 6 FF or 1mm/sec. This converts out to be about a top speed of 3/8 of a mile per week.
Conversion factor is 2688 FF = 1mph
185000 / 2688 = 68.82mph ■

1 mile = 8 furlongs 1 fortnight = 14 days 1 day = 24 hours 75 miles/hour * 24 hours/day * 14 days/fortnight / 8 furlongs/mile = 3150 furlongs/fortnight
A furlong is 1/8th of a mile, so 12,000 furlongs would be 1,500 miles.
You've told us nothing about the direction, so we have no way to describe the velocity. All we can work with is the speed. The speed is exactly 50 km per 2.5 hours. We'll convert that into other units with which you may be more familiar: -- 20 km per hour -- 5 and 5/9 meters per second -- 12.427 miles per hour -- 18.227 feet per second -- 33,404.9 furlongs per fortnight (the last 3 figures are rounded)
The Greek word here is stadia, and the equivalent of 12,000 stadia is approximately 1380 miles
The speed is: 7 inches per minute.It may be converted into many other units of speed.Here are a few others:-- 2.963 millimeters per second-- 58.106 miles per year-- 11.67 yards per hour-- 17.818 furlongs per fortnight-- 0.00663 mile per hour-- 102,267.2 yards per year-- 0.01067 kilometer per hour-- 4.6981 miles per cycle of moon phases
